I watched you walk into the sea
You promised you’d come back to me
You looked back, I heard your voice
“Don’t let them break you down now Joyce”
They filled the skies with dollar signs
Disguised as angels singing lies
“Don’t throw away your life,” they said;
We knew exactly what they meant
The first thing that they do is break
Your heart and sell it back to you
You’re so afraid, and so you pay
And every day is yesterday
But love will make you feel alive
Remember what you have inside
Never sink, and never hide
They tried to break our dream but child –
Joy stops time
You had a thistle in your hair
The meadow waved, so sweet the air
There was a rush, it came so clear
The world was still, our hearts were bare
We were saved, I’m not afraid
What if tomorrow never came?
They lit their tanks, they stole the world
They found us hid in morning’s curl
They told us we were out of time, it was a lie, it was a lie
“Look me in my shining eye, I’ll never be like you!”, I cried
I want to feel your wind in mine, I want to touch the infinite
I want a life that I can taste, so put your arms around my waist
Take the needle, push it in, let’s stay inside the dream we’re in When you come to find me I’ll be where the flowers bloom and sing
You promised you’d come back to me
